Olivia was cold and tired. This case was really beginning to suck. Who wanted to stay up going through stacks and stacks of paperwork in January? It was 2:23 A.M. on a Friday, no scratch that, now it was Saturday. Why did she stay? She told herself it was because she needed to get it done but deep down she new the real truth.

She was lightly shaken awake দ্বারা Melinda Warner. "Liv আপনি should be home." Warner said. "Hmmm." was Liv's sleepy response. "Then why are আপনি here?" Liv muttered. "I'm always here at 5:00 a.m." Melinda ব্যক্ত with a hint of pride. Olivia looked at her like she might be crazy. "I like to clean a lot." Melinda ব্যক্ত simply. "Why didn't I go প্রথমপাতা last night?" Olivia asked herself out loud. Melinda sat down in Elliot's chair sensing this could become a real conversation. Olivia felt a pang of anger. That was Elliot's spot. She failed to suppress a slight growl. Warner shot Liv a puzzled look. "He sits there." she ব্যক্ত quietly. "Liv tell me the reason আপনি didn't go home." Melinda asked. "I-"Liv started, "Liv, I want the real answer." she interrupted. Liv stopped and put her head in her hands. "There was nothing to go প্রথমপাতা to." she ব্যক্ত tears forming in her eyes. Melinda wrapped her in a hug. Olivia cried quietly into the M.E.'s jacket."El is never gonna be there."
